BRAND NEW *OEM Quality* mass air flow sensor to suit MINI Cooper Cooper S and John Cooper Works F56 F55 F57 F54 and F60.

If your MINI has gone flat with an engine light or the yellow reduced power warning the air mass meter is a common culprit. Express delivery Australia-wide so you are back on the road fast.

TO SUIT

Made for the third-generation MINI hatch - the F56 3 door and F55 5 door Cooper with the 1.5L B38 three-cylinder and the Cooper S and JCW with the 2.0L B48 turbo. The F57 convertible shares the same meter.

It also fits the Clubman F54 and Countryman F60 Cooper Cooper S Cooper SE hybrid and JCW.

FITMENT CHECK

This meter suits MINIs built up to 06/2018 (Countryman to 06/2020 and JCW to 02/2019). The 2019-on JCW 225kW (B48 A20 E) and the post-facelift hatch use a different meter - check the build date on your compliance plate and match OEM 13627602038.

PACKAGE INCLUDES

1 x mass air flow meter insert with 4-pin oval connector. Insert only - fits into your existing intake duct housing. No air temperature sensor built in.

ABOUT THIS SENSOR

The meter tells the engine computer how much air the turbo is pulling in. On the B48 Cooper S and JCW a failing unit causes a power drop and boost hesitation that feels like a turbo fault.

On the three-cylinder B38 Cooper the first sign is usually a shaky idle and a stall when the air conditioning kicks in.

COMMON SYMPTOMS OF FAILURE

Yellow engine light with reduced power
Boost hesitation that feels like a turbo fault
Shaky idle or stalling with the air con on
Fault codes P0101 P0102 or P0103
Lean code P0171 and higher fuel use

Can I clean my MAF sensor instead of replacing it?

Yes - if the sensor is contaminated rather than electrically failed, cleaning with a dedicated MAF sensor cleaner spray can restore correct readings. Do not use brake cleaner or generic electrical contact cleaner as these leave residue that damages the sensing wire. Allow the sensor to dry completely before reinstalling. If cleaning does not resolve the fault codes, the sensor requires replacement.

What is the difference between a MAF sensor and a MAP sensor?

A MAF (Mass Air Flow) sensor directly measures the mass of air entering the engine using a hot wire element in the intake. A MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) sensor measures intake manifold pressure to calculate air density. Most modern engines use one or the other - some use both. Your vehicle service manual or OBD2 fault codes will confirm which sensor type your engine uses.

Will a faulty MAF sensor cause my vehicle to fail an emissions test?

Yes. A faulty MAF sensor causes the ECU to miscalculate fuel delivery, typically resulting in a rich running condition that increases CO and hydrocarbon emissions. Most roadworthy and emissions checks will fail a vehicle with an active MAF sensor fault code or visibly excessive exhaust smoke.

What are the symptoms of a bad MAF sensor?

Common symptoms include rough idle, hesitation or stumbling on acceleration, poor fuel economy, black smoke from the exhaust, and an illuminated Check Engine light. Your ECU may log fault codes P0100 to P0104.

Can I drive with a faulty MAF sensor?

You can drive short distances but it is not recommended. A faulty MAF sensor causes the ECU to run incorrect fuel mixtures, which can damage the catalytic converter and O2 sensors over time. Have it replaced as soon as possible.

How do I test if my MAF sensor is bad?

Use an OBD2 scanner to check for fault codes P0100-P0104. You can also use a multimeter or live data scanner to check the sensor output voltage against your vehicle's specification. A reading significantly outside spec confirms a faulty sensor.

What causes a MAF sensor to fail?

The most common causes are a dirty or contaminated sensing element (often from a missing or damaged air filter), oil contamination from an over-oiled aftermarket air filter, heat damage, or general wear over time.

Do I need to reset my ECU after replacing the MAF sensor?

It is good practice to clear any stored fault codes using an OBD2 scanner after replacement. Some vehicles will self-adapt within a short drive cycle, but clearing codes ensures the ECU recalibrates from a clean baseline.
